oh, sorry, no LOL
I got facebook - or rather my daughter got me facebook - maybe or or 2 years back, and I confess I rarely go there. Maybe once or twice a week, to see if someone from my family left any special message or something, but if someone is expecting me to go there regularly ... well let's just say: Good luck LOL
when I feel like playing computer games I play either the ones I have or I go to pogo. The quizzes.... well.....I stay away from those. I don't upload pictures although I will check pictures that my family posts and will comment on them every once in a while. \the thing I can say that I have spent more time in facebook was playing with the grafitti application. I enjoy drawing there, but not enough to go there more often :)
|However, you seem to be enjoying your time there, so hey, that's what counts :)

I'm a super addicted fan of Facebook. In fact, I have 3 in my list. Twitter, Facebook and mylot. And they are in random order, LOL. I get what you mean...the games are just aplenty and Zynga especially will try their best to come out with new and fresher games. There are just so many games and quizzes for boys and girls, ladies and men, elderly and young and whatnot. It's like my 2nd home, besides mylot too. But friends there are more engrossed into inviting to join this and that application that I get swarmed with it, LOL.
However I do love it and I try my best to go through them all, apart from playing games. My no.1 favorite game right now is none other than Mafia Wars. I'm not so quite the Nitrous Racing and Vampire Wars type, but I try. Oh yeah, and now I'm so fixed on the Tycoon game and also Kidnapped! If you have tried Spot the Difference, this is a great game too. And there is another one, Extreme Spot the Difference. Oh well, I can go on and on. Sorry for that...have a nice day.

I am not as addicted to Facebook as I am to MyLot and Gather, but I do spend a lot of time on there, mainly because a lot of my offline friends, as well as half of my family have accounts on there. It started when my cousin got married and put her wedding album up there. They joined, then I joined, and now we all keep in touch on Facebook.

I used to stay in a hostel while I was pursuing my engineering degree... Whenever I used to be free and online, I could think of only one thing, that was facebook. With the amount of quizzes and and other applications that they have, its quite easy to have a good pass time over there. I used to love doing the quizzes and playing Gangster Battle. I still do those things but the frequency has fallen and I am much busy now, doing house chores and other stuff, studying for MBA entrance eams and stuff.
There was a time when I was totally addicted to Facebook, but now its just gone and things have changed with time.

Ya, when I first joined, I used to go on at least 5 times a day in 30 mins sessions. But now, I've just drifted away from fb, and i rarely go on, except if i get a email from fb about something.

I joined facebook last March. And since from that time I also became and addict of playing games. I am a member of mousehunt and I checked regularly every 15 minutes so to catch new mouse. I am still enjoying the game. And from time to time I visit the site.

I'm not sure if I'm addicted to facebook but I sure love the site. I've managed to connect with so many people from my past. It's been absolutely wonderful.
And if you look through my past posts you'll catch up on the history with me and my oldest girl. I've only been in touch with her for the past year. Writting letters back and forth and such. She recently joined Facebook and connected with me there so it's fabulous. I can "talk" to my daughter every day.
The 2 kids that I have at home are the youngest of 6 all together between their father and I. They are now connected with all their siblings. They haven't met or spent time with any of them but they are all getting to know each other slowly over Facebook.
It's a blessing is what it is.

I honestly have to say that I am addicted to facebook as well. If I am not doing anything at all which I have been doing for the past 2 months, you would be addicted to it as well. I love the application games they have as well as the quizzes that I answer once in a while. Its a good way of chatting with your new friends as well as old ones you have not seen for years. A lot of people and a lot of fun!

since I'm staying at home and just do some online freelancing. I spent many hours on the internet and keep my facebook open all the time.
It's good to see what's your friends are up to.

Not me... I have a facebook account, purely because all my family and local friends are on there, as well as my online friends. I found that whenever I went in there, there was always some such quiz or game which kept me in there for hours... and to what purpose? So, I still hold my account and get my alerts, but don't go in there too often.
I think I can safely say I haven't allowed myself to become a Facebook Junkie, but I do enjoy the interaction with family and friends. Brightest Blessings.

i use to have a friendster account and several social network sites like multiply, even before facebook started in the internet. i was became addicted to them , then. now, that i got myself in to facebook, i am not that addicted anymore. i only use them to search and get in touch with "long-time-no-see-friends". i also make use of the tool to market my website and affiliates to make money. I hope you are not wasting so much time on it.have a good "facebook" day!

I became a member there a while back because a friend of mine is on there and my daughter. I do not go there though. It loads too slow for me on dialup. I am usually too busy working online anyway. I'm glad you like it though.

Hi girly! Send me a pm, I'm on facebook and I'd love to add you .
I have gotten stuck on the apps.... like farmtown and vamp wars. I use both every day lol. There are apparently lots of apps I have not gotten addicted to yet but that's because I haven't the time to go look at them all yet.
I use facebook mobile too, although I can only do bare minimum - message, wall post, updates, etc. I wish i could do apps too but I think the only thing those work on are iPhones.

Hello 34momma,
I just joined Facebook last month only. My friends and older brother have been inviting me to join Facebook, but I just can't find time to join it. Until last August, I was able to take a look at the site where a lot of people are getting addicted.
I can say that I am not yet addicted with facebook. I just update my status once in a while. Post messages on the wall of my friends, making some comments. and playing some games. But I don't usually do it on a daily basis. I just do it when I have an extra time. I also tried some of the quizzes and yes it's addicting, good thing though, I am able to control myself.
